Oh the Places You'll Go, Anya! (SC225)

Today's sketch challenge on Splitcoast was to use this paneled layout! I've had this Dr. Seuss paper for a long time and I love to give graduates copies of The Places You'll Go as a gift, so when I saw this Graduate Anya at The Greeting Farm, I immediately knew I had to use the two together. I paper pieced the cap, gown and diploma, and used a combination of Stampin' Up! markers and Watercolor Wonder crayons to color in her face and hair.

Ingredients: Stamps: The Greeting Farm {Graduate Anya digi}; Cardstock: Stampin' Up! {Perfect Plum, Basic Black, Shimmery White}; DP: Stampin' Up! {Certainly Celery Patterns}; Ink/Crayons:

Stampin' Up! {So Saffron, Blush Blossom, Pretty in Pink,

Certainly Celery}, EK Success {Dr. Seuss-The Places You'll Go}; Accessories: Stampin' Up! {Blender Pen}

You Make Me Feel Like Dancing

I am entering this card into a cool digichallenge on a blog called Dare U to DigiStamp-- their rules were to use a digistamp and pink and green-- so I just had to enter it!
This was originally for the limited supply challenge on SCS, but after I uploaded it to that gallery, I had to take it apart and add a little something... I ended up not doing much extra, other than adding ribbon, stickles and cutting a tiny glittered flower for her hairband...
The hippo is a digi from Pink Petticoat. The sentiment was made by me (via computer) because I just couldn't find the perfect one for a dancin' hippo! The finished size is 4 x 8".

All of the other ingredients are listed in my previous post.
Hope I made you feel like dancing....dance the night away :)

You Make Me Feel Like Dancing! LSC216

Today's Limited Supply Challenge on SCS was tough for me! I was determined to use this layout and this super cute hippo-- and they are both screaming for more embellishment! Here were our instructions:

You must only use the following:

1 Wheel

1 Image Stamp

1 Sentiment Stamp
1 Embellishment
I used a combination of markers and Watercolor Wonder crayons to color the hippo, then I covered her outfit in Dazzling Diamonds glitter. What do you think?

Ingredients: Stamps: Pink Petticoat {Little Friends digi stamp}, Stampin' Up! {Tropical Turf}; Cardstock: Stampin' Up! {Whisper White, Pink Pirouette, Certainly Celery}; DP: Cloud 9 Design {Baby Girl Dots}; Ink: Stampin' Up! {Pretty in Pink, Certainly Celery}; Accessories: Stampin' Up! {Dimensionals, Dazzling Diamonds Stampin' Glitter, Oval Punch}

Check back with me later for a more embellished version of this card :)

The Digi Shack Cherry Blossom Challenge

Can you guess how you'd know if my husband was out of town and my kids were in bed? That's right people-- three posts in one day! (Can I get a what what?) So I was perusing my extra super good friend Silvia's Blog (Mabie Stampin') and I saw that the Digi Shack is now open for business-- with a FREE image and challenge to go along with it. How could I resist? I couldn't--- so here is my card. The finished size is 5.5 x 5.5".

Ingredients: DigiStamps: The Digi Shack {Cherry Blossom}; Stamps: Stampin' Up! {Fancy Flexible Phrases}; Cardstock: Stampin' Up! {Whisper White, Chocolate Chip, Certainly Celery}; Designer Cardstock: My Mind's Eye {Confetti}; Ribbon: Stampin' Up! {Chocolate Chip Taffeta}; Accessories: Stampin' Up! {Crafter's Tool Kit, Dimensionals}

LSC214 You're Never Too Old to be a ROCKSTAR

Today’s Limited Supply Challenge was supplied by none other than my friend Silvia, that just moved to Greece! (I miss you, come home!)
I tried really hard to follow the directions, which included 1 color cardstock (neutrals are fine), 2 designer papers and three embellishments….and I almost did it, but not quite !
The dinosaur and sentiment are digistamps from Pink Petticoat. They have so many cute designs—I bought two so look for more on those later!
